While markets were obsessing over payrolls, ECB’s Draghi dropped some big news

The European Central Bank announced some interesting developments while most of the markets were obsessing over the latest U.S. jobs figures.

For the first time, the central bank is going to publish minutes of its meetings. While commonplace for many central banks, this is a pretty bold move by the ECB. The concern many had was that the central bank voter for each country could see political pressure if their votes were made public.

The first minutes to be released will be in 2015, when the ECB adopts a Fed-like schedule of meeting every six weeks instead of each month.

Draghi said the six-week schedule is what will allow the ECB to produce minutes.

As for current policy, Draghi didn’t offer much in the way of new developments, keeping to his message that the central bank stands ready to do more.
